Description | Golimumab is a monoclonal antibody biosimilar expressed in CHO cells, targeting TNFA/TNF alpha, for use in laboratory research applications. This product is not suitable for use as medicines or in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications. Golimumab is a human IgG1? monoclonal antibody derived from immunizing genetically engineered mice with human TNF?. Golimumab binds and inhibits soluble and transmembrane human TNF?. Increased TNF? is associated with chronic inflammation. Thus golimumab is indicated for use in adults (i) as an adjunct to methotrexate treatment in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis (RA), (ii) alone or as an adjunct to methotrexate treatment in patients with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA), (iii) as a single agent in patients with active ankylosing spondylitis (AS), and (iv) as a single agent in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) who require chronic steroids or have experienced intolerance or only a partial response to previous medications. In the U. S. and Canada, golimumab is marketed under the brand name Simponi®. The FDA label includes a black box warning of serious infections and malignancy. Additionally in children and adolescents taking golimumab, there have been lymphoma and other malignancies observed. As a human monoclonal antibody, golimumab binds and inhibits soluble and transmembrane human TNF?. Inhibition of TNF? prevents it binding to its receptors, which prevents both leukocyte infiltration through prevention of cell adhesion proteins such as E-selectin, ICAM-1 and VCAM-1, and pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion such as IL-6, IL-8, G-CSF and GM-CSF in vitro. Consequently, in patients with chronic inflammatory conditions, decreases in ICAM-1 and IL-6 as well as C-reactive protein (CRP), matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP-3), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were observed. |
